As an emperor, Liu Che did not always keep his word.
There are still shackles around him.
The biggest among them are none other than "Huang Lao's Learning: Governing by Doing Nothing" and his grandmother, the Empress Dowager Dou.
During the Wen and Jing dynasties, the thoughts of the imperial court were basically dominated by the idea of "governing by doing nothing".
But this did not faze Liu Che. He called talented people from all over the country to interview on the spot, and finally selected one person and began to praise him, deposed hundreds of schools of thought, and only respected Confucianism.
Confucianism here can also refer to imperial power.
After a series of interest exchanges and stormy moves, Liu Che spent several years basically consolidating the court.
But there was one person he couldn't get around, and that was his grandmother, Empress Dowager Dou, the wife of Emperor Wen and the mother of Emperor Jing.
Although the old lady was blind and deaf, nothing inside or outside the court could be hidden from her.
As for the Han Dynasty, which governed the country with filial piety, as long as Liu Che made even the slightest move to offend the Empress Dowager Dou, then the Dou family, as the Empress Dowager, would have thousands of ways to depose the emperor.
Yes, it is no joke to depose the emperor in the inner dynasty. These women in the Han Dynasty could definitely do it, and they could also occupy the righteousness and impress all the officials.
Fortunately, the old lady is really old and has not been involved in the court these years, so Liu Che can do all kinds of things freely.
But this time
The mobilization of 300,000 troops was not as simple as a decree. The interests involved, the transportation of grain and grass, and the labor of personnel, just one thing would make Empress Dowager Dou, who still adhered to her husband's idea of governing by doing nothing, furious.
Wei Qing and Huo Qubing from Weiyang Palace have both left. This time, Huo Qubing is among the new recruits being trained. Although Liu Che is reluctant to part with his Qubing lucky star, it is a great thing to have one more general in the new army who is committed to him.
Qu Bing'er is already thirteen years old, and it's time to make a career of his own.
Wei Qing made arrangements, and Liu Che sat on the throne with a headache, thinking about how to calm his old lady's anger.
——
Wuhuan.
After an advent, the people here basically recognized Zhang Qi's rule from the bottom of their hearts.
Although they were a little uncomfortable at first, a full meal and enough spiritual comfort made them feel at ease.
As for the riding and slashing world, Zhang Qi brought in far more children this time than before, a total of 3,000 people, basically taking away all the children in Wuhuan.
The two hundred children in the third batch are already sixteen or seventeen years old, plus the wolf cubs left behind by the failed selection of the first batch and the fifty people in the second batch, it is still possible to manage these children. The only possibility that makes Zhang Qi feel distressed That’s a huge expenditure of dinars.
But the effort is worth it. When the three thousand children grow up, he will have enough talents for the craftsmen to use.
For this reason, Zhang Qi specially established a school in the world of riding and slashing, and began to teach students in accordance with their aptitude based on their different talents.
Those who are smart and shrewd will become officials in the future, those who are smart but straightforward, and engage in various high-end industrial engineers of this era, and the ordinary ones can also be used as bricks to move wherever they need to be moved, but if the brain is really not good, then exercise your body and hone your martial arts , to prepare for joining the army in the future.
Of course, these will take a long time to test, but in the world of riding and slashing, the most important thing Zhang Qi lacks is time.
From the time Zhang Qi captured Xianbei to the present, more than half a year, more than six months, nearly seven months and more than 200 days have passed in the outside world. When converted into the time of riding and cutting down the world, thirteen years have passed here.
Thirteen years later, progress at the shipyard was still slow. In addition to solving the leakage in the cabin and the problem of the mast, they still had no way to start building a three-masted sailboat.
The existing ship was completely built by stacking materials. The hull was heavy and the draft was extremely deep. The huge hull could not carry much weight.
In addition to being disappointed, Zhang Qi also reminded him that food should be eaten one bite at a time and one step at a time.
He was a little too naive to want to get involved in a skill that took hundreds or thousands of years to develop.
Internal talent cultivation is important, but time-tested external technologies are also the cornerstone.
Through the news sent back by Lu Mu from Liaodong, Zhang Qi knew that there were already good large ships in this era. Although they had not experienced ocean routes, Zhang Qi was able to absorb these skills to improve his shipbuilding industry.
North and South America, from a broad perspective, are the land of dragon prosperity. If you only have South America and South America, you can become the world's hegemon.
Zhang Qi didn't want to give up. Even if he couldn't completely occupy it, he still wanted to leave legal principles to future generations.
At least it can't be cheap, Ansa!
With the boat, he was able to indirectly control that land. Now the Indians there who have not been misunderstood as Indians are also good soldiers and people.
Zhang Qi brought horses and diseases, and established a loyal foundation of friendship with this ill-fated nation in later generations. He benefited himself and others, and even establishing his own empire on two different continents on which the sun never sets was no longer a fantasy. .
These all depend on the maritime industry.
Zhang Qi will definitely make a lot of money by eating the first mouthful that Era has never had his hands on.
Population is the foundation of prosperity and the beginning of chaos.
Since before the Song Dynasty, whenever the population exceeded the red line of 60 million, endless rebellions awaited a dynasty.
Because the output cannot feed so many people.
Today's big men are fast.
Fortunately, the pattern of confrontation between Han and Hungary still existed, which extended the life of the Western Han Dynasty for decades.
By the time of Wang Mang's generation, population pressure would suddenly erupt with land annexation, and this is how the new dynasty was born.
It is a pity that Wang Mang's role is like that of the Huns today, once again extending the life of the Han Dynasty for more than a hundred years.
The output of the land is a nightmare for all those in power. Once the land cannot support the people, it will be a disaster.
But Zhang Qi is not afraid. As far as he knows, the fishing ground that will be called Hokkaido in the future can feed tens of millions of people. With the high-yield crops coming from the mature shipbuilding industry, Zhang Qi is sure to feed hundreds of millions of people. population.
The premise for all of this is the boat!
No wonder Zhang Qi is anxious. The endless treasure is right in front of him but he can't get it. How can this not make people anxious?
After talking to Yang Disheng at the shipyard overnight, Zhang Qi sent a message to Liaodong, asking Lu Mu to find a way to get a group of mature shipwrights from Liaodong County.
How to talk about it is Lu Mu's business. The young man he entrusted by name last time has managed the Department of Public Works very well. Zhang Qi has implanted a spiritual point in him and completely accepted him as one of his own.
Lu Mu changed from his original identity as the director of the Department of Public Works to the leader of the weaving network, and he and Liu Chai worked together to form the weaving network.
The function of the Weaving Network is a secret organization that integrates diplomacy, intelligence exploration, and talent search.
On the surface, they look like foreign envoys from the Han Dynasty, but their core purpose is infiltration.
